GETTING STARTED

Remove the AC cable from the accessory pack and connect it from the amplifier to a standard wall outlet. Make sure that the Gain and Master Volume controls are set to the minimum position (fully counter-clockwise). Locate the power switch on the right side of the front of the unit and turn on the amplifier. Upon powering up, don’t be surprised if you hear a small pop. This is absolutely normal.

Plug your instrument into the desired input jack (refer to “Front Panel Features” for greater detail). Turn your instrument’s volume up to at least 75% of maximum and slowly adjust the gain control. Once you begin to play your instrument and you see the yellow light over the gain control illuminate, back off the gain a bit. Now turn up the Master Volume and you should hear the sound of your instrument amplified through the California Blonde. For more detailed information, please read the entire manual carefully so that you can fully realize the California Blonde’s potential.
